Public Class Methods

new(name = '', *value) click to toggle source

Creates a new CGI::Cookie object.

The contents of the cookie can be specified as a name and one or more value arguments. Alternatively, the contents can be specified as a single hash argument. The possible keywords of this hash are as follows:

  • :name - The name of the cookie. Required.

  • :value - The cookie's value or list of values.

  • :path - The path for which this cookie applies. Defaults to the base directory of the CGI script.

  • :domain - The domain for which this cookie applies.

  • :expires - The time at which this cookie expires, as a Time object.

  • :secure - Whether this cookie is a secure cookie or not (defaults to false). Secure cookies are only transmitted to HTTPS servers.

  • :http_only - Whether this cookie can be accessed by client side scripts (e.g. document.cookie) or only over HTTP. More details in msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.httpcookie.httponly.aspx. Defaults to false.

These keywords correspond to attributes of the cookie object.

parse(raw_cookie) click to toggle source

Parses a raw cookie string into a hash of cookie-name => cookie-object pairs.

cookies = CGI::Cookie::parse("raw_cookie_string")
  # => { "name1" => cookie1, "name2" => cookie2, ... }
# File lib/action_controller/cgi_ext/cookie.rb, line 95
def self.parse(raw_cookie)
  cookies = Hash.new([])

  if raw_cookie
    raw_cookie.split(/;\s?/).each do |pairs|
      name, value = pairs.split('=',2)
      next unless name and value
      name = CGI::unescape(name)
      unless cookies.has_key?(name)
        cookies[name] = new(name, CGI::unescape(value))
      end
    end
  end

def to_s
  buf = ''
  buf << @name << '='
  buf << (@value.kind_of?(String) ? CGI::escape(@value) : @value.collect{|v| CGI::escape(v) }.join("&"))
  buf << '; domain=' << @domain if @domain
  buf << '; path=' << @path if @path
  buf << '; expires=' << CGI::rfc1123_date(@expires) if @expires
  buf << '; secure' if @secure
  buf << '; HttpOnly' if @http_only
